Who This Book Is For

This book is for Python developers who want to take their applications to the next level, by adding/using parts that scale their application up, without adding unnecessary complexity. It is also helpful for Java developers who want to mix in some Python to speed up their coding effort.

Discover how to use Spring Python's command-line utility and write your own plugin

See how all the blocks work together in the case studies—filled with code samples, screenshots, and high-level diagrams

In Detail

Spring Python captures the concepts of the Spring Framework and Spring Security and brings them to the world of Python and provides many functional parts to assemble applications. Spring Python is all about using the many useful features of Spring to the fullest and making these features available when working with Python.

Get to grips with all of the concepts of Spring and apply these to the language and environment of Python to develop powerful applications for your own personal requirements. The book provides an introduction to Spring Python and steadily takes you towards the advanced features that this integration has to offer.

Spring uses the Java programming language. Spring Python, the first Spring extension to go live, allows developers to make maximum use of Spring features in Python. This book starts off by introducing each of the core building blocks of Spring Python using real code examples and high-level diagrams. It explores the various concepts of Spring Python with the help of examples and case studies and focuses on vital Spring Python features to make the lives of Python and Java developers simple. The early chapters cover simple applications with simple operations including data access, and then subsequent chapters scale up to multi-node, secured, transactional applications stopping short of very advanced level complexity.
